Under Rule 41(b) of the Rules of the Court of Federal Claims, the court may dismiss a case if the plaintiff fails to prosecute. Having reviewed the papers and Mr. Hunter-El’s brief, we conclude that the Court of Federal Claims did not abuse its discretion by dismissing Mr. Hunter-El’s complaint. See Claude E. Atkins Enterprises, Inc. v. United States, 899 F.2d 1180, 1183 (Fed. Cir. 1990). Accordingly, we affirm. AFFIRMED COSTS No costs.
